Скачать или смотреть The Silent Crisis: What Empty Schools Reveal

South Korea is currently facing a demographic shift so profound it is physically altering the landscape of the country. With over 4,000 schools shuttered and thousands more on the brink, the "birth rate crisis" has moved from a statistical warning to a visible reality of empty hallways and repurposed classrooms. In this video, we analyze the structural reasons behind this collapse—from the intense pressures of modern competition to the rising costs of living—and what it means for the rest of the developed world. This isn't just a story about one nation; it’s a reflection on what happens when the cost of the future becomes higher than a society is willing to pay.
